29 Best Cafes in Eugene

“This is a unique coffee house off the beaten path. They roast their own delicious coffee on their wood-fired roaster. Come in on a Saturday when families are there enjoying the games, arcade and art projects. Highly recommended.“

“My friends and I have found our new go-to place! The cutest atmosphere, yummy, made-from-scratch treats, and delicious cocktails and bubbly! The owner is so warm and kind! Already have a date to go back!“

“We had an amazing dining experience at Seize The Cafe. The staff was so welcoming, genuine and friendly. The at home atmosphere was cozy and relaxed. The service was spot on. But the most wonderful thing about this gem of a restaurant, is the food. Clearly Chef Chad loves food. You can taste it in every bite. He is skilled in creating scrumptious flavors and unbeatable meals. Can't wait to go back! and don't hesitate to order pie and ice cream to round out your meal. Both homemade and absolutely out of this world.“

“If you’re looking for a Classy environment and a quality cup of Joe, this is your place.“

“I have been coming to SouthPine for years! I love the emphasis on creative, healthy, natural, locally sourced foods. My favorite coffee drink is the Dirty Hippie Chai — this is just one of Southpine’s many unique menu items. The owners of SouthPine are caring, compassionate and friendly. I highly recommend SouthPine!“

“Great drinks prepared fresh for great prices! The staff are always extremely nice and there's never any significant wait in line or after ordering. Seating is plentiful and it's much quieter at this location than in the food court.“

“I enjoy this cafe as it got delicious baked goods and tasty coffee. Its also respects quiet which is a luxury these days. Every other place is loud and obnoxious. Will, the owner, is a solid guy and enjoys new and routine customers alike. Always worth a stop if I have the time 😊“

“Their food was amazing! 👏“

“Haven't written a review before, but I've been here quite a few times now and really like it. The coffee is great and the location is too! There's a neat little corner outside in the back for those who want a little more privacy and quiet also.“

“Really great espresso drinks and I love the local vibe of the place. It’s the same groups of people in every day, and a very friendly bunch. We love the open spaces and lots of room to get together as a group.“

“me and my boyfriend have been coming to acorn for dates since we moved to eugene for college, and our experience has been consistently amazing! i’m not vegan nor do i go out of my way to eat at many vegan places, but acorn’s food is incredible. i’ve never been disappointed in or even neutral about a dish. the prices are super affordable, and i would honestly be willing to pay more for the quality! the service is also very good. wait staff are friendly and helpful but never overbearing. thank you, acorn, for being our spot :)“

“Excellent food and service. Come by for coffee, a meet up, Breakfast, Lunch or dinner!“

“Great menu, appreciate the willingness to continue making one of the February specials I'm obsessed with (🍌 ☕️ 🥜 )“

“Riktigt goda vattenpipor och utmärkt service! 👏🏼“

“I love this little cafe. The atmosphere is extremely calm and pleasant, the staff is super friendly and they do not overcharge you like in other places. The cafe is very bright and it's beautifully furnished. Coffee and tea is very good.
Perfect place to work without distraction.“

“Actually I do NOT recommend this place! I ordered the RBG sandwich, and it was one of the worst sandwiches I ever had. The bread was dry and the ingredients were skimpy and fell out of the bread. The chickpea spread was almost non-existent. I paid $8 but it was worth about $1.50. I do NOT recommend this sandwich or this place.“

“This building is a centerpiece of the campus, and going up inside has its own great views. Plenty of space to hang out inside, plus there is an outdoor balcony on the back side. Quiet spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of students moving from class to class.“

“Good food and reasonably priced. The service is always quick and they have some of best burgers and fries in town, with a lot of other vegan options. They offer soup, salads and sandwiches. Beware the place can be extremely noisy on the inside, and sometimes it is hard to hear.
On a nice day, you can sit out on the patio, which is a much quieter alternative. Delicious coffee and tea drinks along with cookies, muffins and pastries.“

“Great service , great atmosphere , amazing customer service , enjoy spot to get some alcoholic beverages , and a great spot to do your local gambling , come check them out 8-close !!“

“Kendall is well known for the sales and service departments. Little is known of a cafe tucked away between Kendall’s Honda and Acura dealerships, Wheels Cafe. Well I am here to tell you that Chris and his staff, are heads and shoulders above a lot of eateries here in Eugene. They prepare a daily special that tantalizes the taste buds and burgers that can extinguish the hungriest of appetites. You can tell that the food comes second only to the customer service from the staff. Everyone is prompt and courteous, ready to help with all your culinary desires. Kendall has a tag line, “Kendall the name means a great deal,” The Wheels Cafe and the staff exemplifies this motto. Remember, The Wheels Cafe is open to the public, not just to employees and the customers of the sales and service departments.“

“Great coffee every time, workers are so sweet and happy!“

“The best vibe in eugene. I was around when Cowfish was birthed upon the sad-eugene scene: it filled a gap where the non-insider-outsider human could feel a breath of relief, remove their proverbial mask of normalcy, and be free with other non-classifiable amiable weirdos while out-and-about in the day or night. I can attest: Throughout CF’s residency in eugene, I have always known it to be a space where I don’t have to cover-up my atypical weirdness to feel safe and belong. I’ve been absent from eugene for 9 years now. Upon a recent return to town, I entered CF and felt the same relief as I noted above. 😻💿 👹 📀🛸💽 🫀 Thank you, Cowfish, for being unapologetically weird and keeping it real, I love you forever and always. <3“

“I love magpie! The workers are always super friendly and provide quick efficient service. The coffee is always on point and consistently made. I usually end up coming here over other spots because of its affordability and fast service, appreciate y'all! <3“

“Amazing turkey sandwich !!! The spread was amazing“

“Extensive menu of savory crepes as well as sweet. Breakfast served all day. Indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is incredible. Definitely one of our new favorite spots!“

“Love this place so much I almost want to keep it a secret. I take my clients here for business coffees whenever I’m in Eugene. Mellow for meetings or working remote. Bomb food. Super nice baristas. Consistent. Haven’t been disappointed. 💯“

“Delicious treats, I especially like the coconut passionfruit pudding and the Rhum babas but you really can’t go wrong with any of their baked goods or food. Friendly service and good coffee. Highly recommend!“
